How do i create a secure and safe password for my database? I know you can use access to add a password but its way too easy to crack. Any sugestions?
thx

Store the database in a container, like http://www.truecrypt.org/
If the algorithm used by access is weak, then the "strength" of the password is irrelevant. "secret" is just as useless as "240£!#dfQQdf"
Sure, the latter will defeat simple dictionary attacks, but if your "password recovery" tool is capable of analysing the file and returning the password in better time than "brute force", then there's no hope for it.
